Definition1/12
When there is an increase in hydrogen ion concentration, the
soil becomes acidic. Too much acidity in the soil can kill
plants.

How is a change in hydrogen ion concentration reflected in the pH
🔄 Click to see definition
Definition1/12
pH is the negative logarithm of the hydrogen ion concentration;
so an increase in hydrogen ion concentration give a reduction in
pH. A reduction in hydrogen ion concentration causes an increase in
pH.
